Valid points, for sure.

I guess maybe I'm just naive, but I honestly don't think I'd learn "that much." I'm very much looking forward to your review someday. Who knows? Maybe it will change my mind.

That's a better reason not to join. Unlike you, I do not have proven MTT results, so a site like this appeals highly to me. For what they (claim) are providing, I would consider a *much* higher fee.

checked out their demos -- the entire SnG tourny shown wasnt too informative -- he basically played tight, bet his strong hands and got paid off lovely with quads and hit alot of flops.

quiz was interesting, i did a few things differently, but overall nothin too much

I personally am not in a hurry to shell out $$ for this

I'm pretty sure the demos weren't really meant to be very instructional. Just a demonstration of the format. In fact, on anotehr board I saw a post by mindwise that pretty much said "you shouldn't really play like I did in the quiz."

I'm still pretty intrigued by the whole thing.

Was wondering about that.... because I disagreed with a number of his plays. You would think they would want to at least get that example just right.

That quiz was so ridiculous - i was honestly thinkin about buying that thing until i took the quiz - Mindwise played a number of hands pretty horrible.

I agree w/ you on this point, because it's hard to dispute. Really though - "Bax and sheets" is the draw.

Right, but I was reading the forum where a bunch of discussion took place about this, and a guy basically said, "Yeah I took the quiz and apparently I did a bunch of things wrong," and mindwise answered and said "DO NOT play like I did on the quiz, it was just an example of the format."
